Chapter 136 New Year's Eve
There are six hot dishes: pheasant stewed with mushrooms, Wuxi meat stewed with cabbage and vermicelli, stir-fried bacon with green onions, black fungus, eggs and carrots, stewed potatoes with dried beans, and stewed tofu with Chinese mustard greens, as well as spicy raw meat, cold shredded potatoes, and two cold dishes. The staple food is dumplings stuffed with pork and cabbage!
There were meat and vegetarian dishes, hot and cold dishes, a total of eight dishes, all served on the table in large portions!
"Come on, after a year of being educated youth, this is the only time we get together properly. With good food and good wine, let me make a wish that we can all get what we want in the new year. Those who want to go to school will all be workers, peasants and soldiers, those who want to return to the city will all have quotas, and those who want to go home will all have a partner of their dreams. Come, let's drink!"
Liu Hongjun, the eldest brother who has settled in Sikanzi the longest, is already in his 30s. When he went to the countryside, he was still a young and beautiful boy. After more than 10 years of baptism, he now has a rough face and thick finger joints. At first glance, he is almost no different from an ordinary country man!
It seems that there is no hope. Recently, he seems to have asked someone to introduce him to a new place, hoping to settle down in the countryside completely!
They always thought that Liu Hongjun would end up with Tian Xilan. They were both among the earliest batches of educated youth and had a close relationship. Normally, Liu Hongjun would secretly give a portion of any good things he got to Tian Xilan!
It's as if I've seen it more than once!
Whenever there was any problem at the educated youth point, the two of them would discuss it together. I don’t know why, but in the end they didn’t come together!
It seems that Tian Xilan, the person involved, is fine. She doesn't seem to care at all about Liu Hongjun's blind date. She just drinks, eats, and chats without any interruption!
Maybe they really took it for granted and misunderstood!
For a moment, the atmosphere at their table became increasingly heated. Although there were many people and they were all crowded together, they were chatting and laughing, bragging, and from time to time someone told a joke, which made everyone laugh!
In the joyful atmosphere, Yu Hongqi and his partner, who were setting up a separate table in the male educated youth's kitchen, became even more silent!
"Guochang..."
Lu Guochang's gloomy face paused, looking at the half-crushed steamed bread on the table in his hand, and patted Yu Hongqi's head to comfort him, "It's okay, the steamed eggs you make are delicious, I like them very much. Now the road is blocked by heavy snow, so there is nothing we can do. When the road out of the village is open, Liu Hongjun and I will borrow his car and go to the county to buy a pound of meat to supplement you. Recently, you have suffered a lot and lost weight..."
Yu Hongqi's eyes were red, and she felt resentment towards the cruel couple. It had been so long and she had even obtained the marriage certificate with him, so why didn't they answer her calls or reply to her letters?
"Don't worry, there is no cruel father in the world. After a while, we will be soft-hearted. I believe that Uncle Yu and Aunt Yu will definitely forgive us in the end!"
By that time, the two of them would have already had an affair, and maybe even had a child. I don't believe that the Yu family would be so cruel as to not want a daughter or a grandson. As long as they still want him, they must give him what he wants!
"Okay, let's eat. You can rest early later. I'll stay up all night!"
After saying that, Lu Guochang picked up the remaining steamed bread crumbs on the table one by one and ate them slowly. During the process, he was very cherishing, which made Yu Hongqi feel reluctant to part with them!
After dinner, Lu Guochang took out his high school textbook and looked at the book "㱕㣉迷"!
This meant that Hongqi had finished eating and had not yet come back to his senses from the book after cleaning up the dishes!
Yu Hongqi decided immediately that she would use the coarse grains to exchange for some fine grains from the villagers tomorrow. Studying requires a lot of brain power, so it's okay for her to eat less. But she couldn't be too harsh on Guochang, as he was such a good student and a potential candidate for college. In the end, Guochang would definitely get a place in the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University!
Happy times are always short. After eating dumplings on New Year’s Eve, the New Year is over!
After 12 o'clock midnight, after cleaning up the mess on the table and washing up, she lay on the kang, surrounded by the sounds of Xiaobei, Mei Ting and others sleeping soundly, but she just couldn't fall asleep!
This year is the last New Year she will spend with Xiao Bei and the others. Next year’s Spring Festival, she will spend it with Lu Yao!
Thinking about it, I still feel a little reluctant!
What is Lu Yao doing at this moment?
What delicious food does the Lu family make on New Year's Eve?
